ILLINOIS WATERWAY HYDRAULIC DREDGING INDEFINITE DELIVERY/INDEFINITE QUANTITY (IDIQ) RIVER MILE 0.0 TO RIVER MILE 291.0

Description

{"description":" The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers conducts dredging operations to maintain navigable waterways, ensuring the safe and efficient movement of commercial and recreational vessels. The Illinois Waterway, a critical transportation corridor, experiences continuous sediment deposition, which can create navigation hazards and reduce channel depths. Historical efforts to manage sedimentation have included periodic dredging to maintain authorized channel dimensions and prevent disruptions to river traffic. Key challenges include balancing navigational needs with environmental concerns, such as sediment disposal impacts, water quality, and habitat preservation. Ongoing maintenance dredging is essential to support economic activity, flood risk management, and overall waterway reliability. \n"} Solicitation Number: W912EK26RA003 Type: Solicitation Base Type: Presolicitation NAICS: 237990 Classification Code: Y1KF Response Deadline: 2026-01-22T10:00:00-06:00 Office Address: ROCK ISLAND, IL Place of Performance: Peoria, Illinois POC: Kate Behrens, Katherine.D.Behrens@usace.army.mil POC: Jeffrey R.
